In fast-moving product teams, flexibility isn’t a luxury — it’s a requirement. The Time and Materials (T&M) model offers precisely that: a framework where scope can adapt as priorities shift. When this model is paired with nearshore LATAM talent, the result is an agile powerhouse. 🌎
Adopting a UX culture is not just about hiring designers or having fancy tools. It's about transforming the way an organization thinks, collaborates, builds, and makes decisions. A user-centered mindset is a strategic vision that places people at the center—not just in design, but throughout the entire business experience. Building this culture takes time, consistency, and leadership, but the benefits are tangible: more intuitive products, better-aligned teams, and happier users. 🧠
Freemium models dominate today’s digital ecosystem—from productivity apps to design tools, video games, and educational platforms. But with their popularity come complex challenges. The hardest of all: how can we design an experience that is appealing and useful in its free version, while also motivating users (without pushing them) to pay? This delicate balance between value and conversion is at the heart of UX in freemium products.
Understanding how our minds react to screens, buttons, and animations can be the key difference between a product that feels natural and one that feels frustrating, even if it functions well. Neuroscience gives us clues into how we perceive, feel, and make decisions in digital environments, opening a world of possibilities for designing more human, intuitive, and effective experiences. 🧠
In the world of enterprise UX, few platforms offer as much flexibility, power, and adaptability as Liferay. This open-source portal has gained traction among large organizations that need solid, customizable, and user-centered digital structures. It’s the kind of tool that turns complex challenges into robust solutions 🧩
Traditional UX design has lived—and still lives—on screens. From graphical interfaces on computers to mobile apps, user experience has long been anchored in the visual. But we now live in an era where screens are no longer the only medium of interaction. The rise of voice assistants, wearables, haptic devices, and immersive environments presents a new challenge: how can we design experiences that are just as intuitive, enjoyable, and effective when there’s no screen to guide the user? This question opens the door to a fascinating world of possibilities and responsibilities.
In a time where we’re speaking more and more to our devices, virtual assistants have become an everyday tool: we set alarms, check the weather, ask questions, and even control our homes using our voice. But behind that “magic” lies a critical layer that is often overlooked: user experience (UX) design focused on voice interfaces. Unlike a touchscreen or a web page, voice introduces an entirely different kind of experience—one that demands new approaches to usability, empathy, and conversational structure. Designing for ears and words is a fascinating challenge.
When designing experiences for wearables, we step into a space where the interface is no longer just visual—it becomes something you feel, something you wear, and, in many cases, something that merges with your body or surroundings. Devices like smartwatches, augmented reality (AR) glasses, and virtual reality (VR) headsets have radically changed how we interact with technology. It’s no longer about clicking; it’s about moving, looking, touching, even speaking. This kind of design requires us to think beyond the screen: to consider context, physical limitations, and entirely new languages of interaction. 🧠
Today, with the arrival of the metaverse as a promise of persistent, interactive, and immersive 3D environments, UX professionals are facing a new and challenging landscape. It's not just a new channel—it’s a new paradigm of interaction, presence, and design. This new stage compels us to rethink many of the foundations we once took for granted.
Forms are one of the most critical touchpoints between users and digital products. They’re where the most important actions happen: creating an account, making a purchase, submitting a request, subscribing, or booking a service. But even though they’re at the heart of many digital experiences, forms remain one of the most overlooked and mistreated elements of interface design.
